[Coiitikued from niir First BANK RESTRIcTION BILL. The 'CITANCELLOR of the Ekcnßoußit. having moved the Order of the Day (Or 'the second read it of the Bank Restriction hilt, ‘a conversation took place between him and Alr..Tierney; from which it appeared thit the fornier Gentleman . tl►ongbt`the latter intended to move an Arnett& went in the Committee on die Bill, This the latter denied, and Said, he ..x•ishedto give Mem ber; an oPpoiliiiiity of speaking on the subjet in •• the present state of the ih'eastfte. ,The. CnANdECLOR of the Ex'cus4tica vras ilten miderstorat tb withdraw .his [notion for the se' 7 - coodreading. Mr. TIERNEY said be now rote in pursuance of • his . not-ice,: to call the . at tens ion of the House to one of the most important subjects that could pos sibly claim their consideration. Ile shOtild ab stain front making any comparisons to ascertain whether we were in a state of prosperity or ad versity, Isitt should leave his point to be decided by facts. In this, the third year of peace,. we. had a -Funded Debt of about, in room! nuMbers, 800,000,0001.atid ift u t his were added 49,000,0001., being, the amount of of l' Unfund,tl Debt, when the Exchequer ,Bills should be funded, it would make the whole a monot to S4O millions. This was an appalling. consideration to those who thought we Were in a state of,adversity; but then the comfort we were told we had was, that we possessed a Sinking Fund of 14,000,0001 But every farthing of this. - must be borrowed. This was the side of adversity again. But the Right Hon. Gentleman exulted at the terms on which this fourteen 'could be borrowed.. There was a set-i7ff of comfort again here. But the fact was, that the whole was bottomed on a paper cir .culation, and there it most end. Every titan .nittst express his aversion at any, such system beiugsattopted. Then how happened it that the House were now called on to adopt a measure that could only be jastified by the extraordinary pres 'sure of an extraordinary and unparalleled war?-- Two yeart ago they were prepared to exptct that the Bank would resume its payments. This led at once to the discussion, whether the Restriction Act ought to be renewed. That Act passed in 1797, because the Bank Direc tors .stated to Mr. Pitt that they had the most serious ;towel - tension for' the safety of the House, if,t bey did not receire inch a protection. Vas such a representation, lie would ask, made now ? he Bank Directors were Wedged to resume cash payments on the sth . of July next ; judging by their silence on the subject, they fully concurred in that limitation.— They fully concurred, then,,with the (light Gentleman, in the opinion that they could at that period resume cart payments. If that was the case, how coul d , tbernow agree to the Right lion. Gen tleman's Bill ? If they did not conehrin the ball, ration, they must only have been laughing in their sleeves 'at the Right Hon. Gentleman,- aoit at the monstrous nonsense of. such a proposition. h should he recollected, that the -foreign loans were negociated with the expres - s_cnncurrence of the Chancellor of the Exchequer and of the Batik Directors, and at the - very time .N ton when the: most perfect ryliatiee was placed upon the resump tion of -cash payments at the appointed period.' It was absolutely necessary, therefore, to inquire whether 'the Directors- were really lattgbiog', - at the Right Hon. Gentleman, and his hope of the re- sumption of cash payments ; and if, while these foreign lOans were actually negociating,, the Di rectors countenanced the beliet that they would resuthe cash payments on the sth, of July, this was hut an adaititinal reason for a thorough in vestigation.—. They talked of their experience ; it was praised in the.preatuble of the Bill ; but he be lieved it was extolled no wher&else. , If the House 4cted consistently with ifs for Mer conduct, it should institute air inquiry. The Chancellor of the Ex chequer made flourishing speeches; Lot it should he remembered, that they abounded only in the Right Hon. Gentleman's own assertions.. should no.t be surprised, indeed he expected it, that trome of the Directors 'should rise, in 4he course of the debate, and abjure-, on the part of the Bank, the proposition,` that this nseasure, of the renewal of, the restriction, originated _with them. They would, pet baps, be angry at the mere insinuation (f such an idea, and would confidently declare, that they were ready to re sume cash payments• at this very instant, if they were not prevented from doing so by aft act of the Legislature. He trusted, that even sir far as he 14411 gone,.lie bad lair! sufficient grouu l ds,to call fa - s.!il in quiry.- It ‘eould- be asked, what were the subjects , to w bid, lie wished this iriquit y to - be directed. Int the first place he wished to • inquire - into - the 'sub:- ject of the Areigit loans. fie thought it neces .sary, before the House should vote the continu ance of the Rerarietion Act-for a year longer, that it should be fully acqaainted with the nature and the tendency of - those transactiow:. If Mem brrs:were anxious to haVe sufficient information before they- would give their votes,:a.hey would find that there were many points extremely wor thy of their consideration. It a Committee were granted, several persons . woold be.. (mind . capa ble and (161)080 to give that information, as' they f-`id on a former 'occasion . giye much use ful evidence to. the Bullion Cominittee. • Of all thiogs, he, was most anxious to ahstairt ,fro';) curls' thing like abstruse . discusSion, Fie felt hints'elf unequal to , the task ; and he thought that the last place' for the exaniination 0f.410g, rues and:doctrines, demanding research and in cessant atteutTdu, Wai • a pO-palar There were,. however, other points, to be referred to; at whic - h he wonld now merely glance, with out .ex !doting them to any depth ; and one of these was the high price of bullion, ilc would a4-k; it the liouie really- •telt convinced that all the -evi &nye which was given On this .sitliject to . the Bul lion Committee .should be . set ',aside,. and that, ;indeed, the issue of pver hail no effect whatever on 'the price of holltoo ? %Vas there any doubt in the mind of any 1)...r50n who paid the slightest at tention to the matter, that the price of bullion was raised by the excessive issue of paper / His object was, before they would comae to the qoestiotsof the loan, that they should examine the causes which "P" -a'" upon t l ,e (trice of g01d... Ano.her point to consider- was, the uteumulatioil of gold bunion in the coffers afire Bank. It could not surely be tioe,oi-oord, coo. the eNCesiio isene of paper, t - gether % v io l th e arribont c,f hum , . k pt by the kia!;l( . , ipfl.ieure:l most, rroteriillY the bullion market. It was also to be seen what the idiffe ren-Ce was : bet weeo the silver and gold,curreney. 1-le did not wish,. hiMself, to offer any _opinion upon these subjects ; he wished to be understoildto allude to them as subjects fit to be investigated, and . upon 'which he desired information.. He'believ e . ed, however,. hat the difference between the fOrtner and the e present state , of silveratolgold cur rency was, that the proportion of • the silver was to the gold, as 15. arid a fraction was to 1) in other words, that the difference bet ween the former gold arid silyer currency was 5/. 18s. per cent:. It was evident, that where there was a disposi tion to export gold, it was necessatily. raised itt 'price ; but he thought it was not too mucleto say ; that the difference in the price of gold was owing to an alteration in -the silver market. The Committee would have also to inquire into the ef fect of the foreign loans. For his part,' he did not think that to them was to lie attributed the ex cessive issue of paper. It was necessary, hoe.- ever, that an _inquiry should he tirade, in order that the ,House should have a fair understanding upon that sidiect. The Chancellor of the Ex chequer spoke of the loan as a formidable thing; -because it was a loan ! He was alarmed, because it tended to*drain the country 'of i s metallic cur . reticle. But if remittances of wild to the Conti nent took place to the same amount, and for any other purpose than a loan, would the Right Hon. Gentleman think it necessary to• call for the interference of the Legislature'? The Right lion. Gentleman should recollect, that the temptation to these loans was entirely of his own creation'. He raised the price of Stocks here by his financial and speculative operations, and he lowered here the interest ofononey. That having been the case . , it was oatural that every person, who wished 10 increase' his income wising from the interest of .his money, sent it to the market whence he could get the best return—where, then, was all this to , end ? The House was asked to pa s ss a law. for floe year, and it wasspromisod that at, the expiration of that pet iod Cash Payments would be resumed. But what security had the House for this ? -The principle was, laid down by the Right Hon. Gen tleman that Cash Payments were to be it flu ?aced by foreign loans. What security had the I-16use that there would be no foreign loan next year ? The ,consequence was inevitable —the House would, upoii' the same principle o be called upon to renew the' Restriction . Acto In France there Was no paper circulation : _their stocks were 'rising, yet they talked of •nothing but adversity. Here there wasorn excessive issue of paper : the stocks were falling, yet we talked of our prospe rity. The loan to 'be raised for France • this year amounted to 30,900,0001 . . It was necessary to inquire wtort 'Portion of,that suns it was reason able to exptict .Woaddleave this country. It was - possible that, from the re.riving - coefiderteoliO the French Finances, suhscriotiops to the Loaf) might be.sent from wher countries dial) . and that 'the Leian might, in some degree, be couuter acted by the •option which. he inidergto - od the -French Minister to possess 'of' Paving private claims in stock at, its selling price. lint the peat - question wits,- how notch gold •Itad left, and was likely leave, this'enuntry ?• Which was better, that, England :should lose 1; s Character for good • faith, or that the 3:kilo'..boolel be ?Bowed tO ao_ cumulate tuiflions oo i' They who had never,put theiuselve^ ^o !fie lea'st inconvenience or expence to - relieve the distresses of the country. They had at this moment, in their coffers, at least 10,000,0001, They had accumulated or spent 21',000,000.1.' which they made by the clittntrY. Yet the House wars never' told . that they should , not „serve the country, because they- might in trench upon suchenormotis profitS. He was not urging the necessity of impooliately resoming cash-payments ; till Coo he , was anxious about was to institute an itopiirYo'in order Lo see whe ther the Batik ottoilitOr osight 'not to be restricted from such a resumption. if the Conon:nice was denied him, 'it would be an additional proof of what hi had 'apprehended,' namely, , that this system would be continued front year to year; and that at length it would become a mere mat ter o f f course. It was said, last Session, that tiro restriction would cease on the sth of Judy ; and the uncertainty on that subject prodhced great fluctuation in the Stocks for the last eight or nine months,, and caused much gambling. The• same itictteltion, anti the same gsmbliNg, wool d, be _supposed, soon go, on again, until it was known, whether eveu atter the nett year should. have ter ' Initiated; the Cash payments OvOuld be resumed. The whOle finirOcial • system of. the Right Hole. Gentleman wets one of speculation. It was his object to keep tip the vcirculati'i - in; .and in this be abandoned the criterion which he had formerly adopted... It Wes his criterion, and 'it Was sane tiotsed 'by the'Hoose, that the circulation of the country ought to bele a proportion to its revienne, its expOrts o , and itoports.—Now, for the y ea r 1816, the exports and iinports amounted to 81,000,0001. ,and ,odd ; _in 1817_, 87,000,0001. and odd. The revenue` :for the year- 1316 "kinjounted to:,57,00,0001. and odd ; 1317 to only 47,000;0001.. and odd. The budget for I'Bl6 amounted to 25,000,0001; a.nd mid ; th e Bad. get torolS.l7 amounted, to 22,000,0001. and odd. If the dimiiiatiou : ot therefore,. were de docoed front the excess of exports and importslit would he !hot en issue less by 7,1'00,0001.. would he required at present for the circulation or, t h e . co , ffitr y. 1816 the issue wet .'26,500,0001. ; .in 1817 it Was 28,200,0001. From : the whole it testified that there' ,dinti . nu . 1 i o 017,000,0 in/. the amount of th.e demand fol. money ; vet ' within This last year there was an excessive issue of 2„600,000/ o The demand star reo d t 4 e d still less if the fimcinnt of the circulation of country bank paper was taken Into: considerat_ion e This excessive issue, however; 'at was the object of the Right 'Hon.

Mr. Tierney then ar gued against the Country' Bankers' Bill; he denied that it was Jost or necessary,, and contended di it it was only paving the way for the issue of Go. vertortent paper. It' was the duty of the House ' to faCe the financial starof the country at once, and to Sound - it to the bottom. He did not mean
